Mel is a very positive, insightful and helpful recruiter. Mel was able to identify a job role (which I was successful in obtaining) that I would not have even considered approaching. Her supportive manner and knowledge of employer's needs was extremely helpful both in application and interview stages. Nothing was any trouble for her, including re-formatting a cover letter on the day of application! I would highly recommend Mel for anyone who is looking for an approachable, honest and professional recruiter.

I recently worked with eNL in a locum role and, looking for an opportunity to work permanently, was helped most ably by Melanie Daly to achieve an offer of a job with a well-known Lincolnshire firm. Throughout my experience with eNL, I have met only with a professional and helpful people and Melanie, in particular, went out of her way to approach and broker an excellent job for me in the general locality of my new home. I have been working with many agencies over the last 12 years, mainly with regard to locum work, but eNL are certainly at the top of my list in providing an efficient, professional and helpful service.
